very nice looking. I think I would put in 1 or 2 more hoops in the middle for support. If you are keeping it on all year round anyways. snow, yah know.

jeez, seems like famous people are dropping off left and right.

and maybe the fact that is has a California license plate. :nuts: just noticed.

too clean to be in any rust areas. must be somewhere in cali or over there. looks good.

whoooo, just got home from seeing Transformers 2, way better than the 1st one. Awesome movie, defiantly go see it. :popcorn:

yea I will. i finished it up saturday night before I posted here. when it stops raining (were are on like a 2 week streak almost) i'll defiantly take a closer look.

here 'tis all finished. makes the rest of the axle look terrible, but whatever.

man I can't wait untill i get some kind of traction aid, be it 4wd or a locker or both.

The place is in Oregon, if someone is super curious the number on the window is still valid: Keith's Auto Svc Ctr 3530 SW Multnomah Blvd Portland, OR 97219 (503) 244-0379

pretty nice, what lift is he running in that pic? :teehee:

craigslist FTW. thats where i found my MJ. have a few XJ's in my sights, sent out some e-mails earlier, waiting on responses. thanks for the tip on the NP242, i'll keep that in mind.

ah, cool thanks. I think i'll buy a whole XJ, use the np231 out of that for the time being, and then keep an eye out for a np242. they are hard to come by at a good price around here. Just gotta find a halfway decent XJ around for cheap.

ah yeah, just had a discussion with pops about it. going to go for a whole xj rather then just parts, so mind as well look for one that is in a bit nicer condition. I can get lots of stuff off of it. I know this question is asked a lot, but i've never seen a good answer to it: what is the difference between the NP231 and the NP242?

yeah, convinced to keep 'er stock height now. just working on finding a decent AX-15 and NP242, the latter of which is rather hard to find. I found a jeep on craigslist: http://nh.craigslist.org/pts/1229756837.html has an AX15 but a NP231 :( he said he'd give away both for $300, but may break them apart. "255000 miles. it was a commuter jeep it is all highway miles from a woman who took care of this jeep. the trany is not all covered with grese i drove this jeep 100 miles home it shifted fine and the transfer works good to. this jeep still runs and drives the transfer is a 231 . the drive shaft was so rotted when i got it the first time i let the clutch out quick it twisted the drive shaft up like crushing a beer can .had to boro a shaft to get it home !! she drove this jeep into my shop wanting rust repair its underside is rusty jeep was driven easy its whole life." worth it for just the tranny? will it match up to a NP242?

ah thanks for the info. that was just sitting there, noting attached or around it. the truck is still registered in the guy who i bought it from, so i guess i get to keep the plates. i don't really know.

been busy with school lately. searching up some parts. pulled the diff cover today, what gross oil, milky black and smelled awfully. I think I'm going to "rinse" out the gears and housing with lighter weight oil first. got my gasket and decided to paint my cover. why not right? a few coats of primer and 2 nice coats of gloss. don't know how it'll come out yet as i just sprayed the last coat of gloss about 30 mins ago. woo, took this like 20 mins ago. and what is this?

found a transmission out of a 94 xj, manual 135k miles. $175 - 250 sound about right? the NP242 is $250 - 300. closest one is 50 miles away. not going to do the 4wd conversion right away though, don't really have all the money to get the stuff. but before winter hopefully.

There are parts around, just not 100% on what options to choose: want to keep it manual, but what is the difference between a Police or Export package vs none?
